Answer:

There are 23 dimes in the box

Step-by-step explanation:

Let nickels=n

Let dimes=(35-n)

Equation: 0.05n+0.10(35-n)=2.90

Multiply both sides by 100: 5n+10(35-n)=290

-5n+350=290

-5n=-60

n=12

35-12=23

Therefore, there are 23 dimes in the box

Mars2501 [29]

Answer: the length of the rectangle is 12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the rectangle is x inches

Hence, the width is (x/2)+4 inches

Thus,

\displaystyle\\2(x+(\frac{x}{2} +4))=44\\\\2x+x+8=44\\\\3x+8=44\\\\3x+8-8=44-8\\\\3x=36\\

Divide both parts of the equation by 3:

x=12\ inches

postnew [5]

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, the following equation is generated given the available information:

\frac{(x + 7) + x)}{x + 7} = \frac{12 + 8}{12}

\frac{2x + 7}{x + 7} = \frac{20}{12}

\frac{2x + 7}{x + 7} = \frac{5}{3}

Cross multiply

3(2x + 7) = 5(x + 7)

6x + 21 = 5x + 35

Collect like terms

6x - 5x = - 21 + 35

x = - 21 + 35

x = 14
